[QUOTE="Antje77, post: 2510335, member: 372207"] Yes, that's somewhat alike but with the difference that my group will simply make a meal, which I can take or not take, or take partly without being rude, like asking for more than my share of part of the meal. I mean, I can hardly ask for extra meat or sauce if there is a lot of pasta with very little sauce and exactly 1 meatball for everyone... It's more difficult because of planning in advance without knowing how flexible the group will be. Can be anything from 2 hours to 14 hours, or 6 hours early morning and than 3 more in the middle of the night, depending on the goal of the day and the tide. Most often we start at around 10AM and finish between 3 and 5PM,but that's not at all a hard and fast rule. And besides, if some drunken idiot falls down the stairs in the middle of the night, or if someone clogs the toilet, I might suddenly find myself back on duty, even if we're not sailing. :hilarious: The physical intensity of the work varies a lot too, depending on how much wind we have and from what direction it comes. Sailing mainly consists of bursts of action interspersed by stretches where you just need to keep an eye on the course or guide a guest or a new deckhand in steering the ship. (Which can be hard, but you can always do it with a cup of coffee in your hand.) The bursts of action are often hard to predict, which makes BG management interesting! But considering the captain had his knee replaced only a month ago, I expect things will mostly be quite relaxed. :) [/QUOTE]
